A Simple Question

If a woman is pregnant, then what is she pregnant with?

As I see it you have limited choices:

  1. Human
  2. Alien
  3. Clump of tissue
  4. Animal (Dog, Cat, Mongoose, etc.)

Yeah, I know it’s a simple question but yet somehow people are stumped by it — really. I have spent many a days, with Bound4LIFE, praying at the U.S. Supreme Court and have of course had to answer questions about why I am praying.

Here is a little scenario:

Spectator: What are you doing?

Me: Praying for God to end abortion.

Spectator: What? Why?

Me: I believe murdering innocent children is wrong.

Spectator: Well the fetus is not a person.

Me: Then what exactly is a woman pregnant with?

Spectator: Bigot.

Sure, not everyone responds like this but I think you would be surprised by the number of people who do. It seems as if simple common sense has all be escaped us as a society. Or, perhaps it’s easier to convince ourselves that a child is less than human so that we can feel better ourselves. Either way abortion is wrong and must stop.

    Just wanted to say your scenario is pretty sweet. do people really respond w/ “bigot” after your showing them truth?

    Yeah, some people totally do. In all honesty I have been called much worse for just praying silently… but hey, what do you do? :)
